An off-duty United States Border Patrol officer was charged with assaulting a Long Beach police officer as well as resisting arrest, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced on Friday afternoon.

Isaiah Anthony Hodgson, 29, is facing multiple felony and misdemeanor charges, including three felony counts of resisting arrest, one felony count of battery on a peace officer, and various misdemeanor charges for allegedly carrying a concealed firearm.

A lawyer for Adrian Martinez, a 20-year-old American citizen who was arrested by federal agents at a Walmart parking lot last month, said in a statement that Hodgson was "involved" in the arrest of their client. "This agent happened to not have a mask on the day of Adrian’s arrest, and because of that, he was quickly identified and connected to the incident in Long Beach," The Miller Law Group said. Hodgson was also reportedly involved in the arrest of Job Garcia, a United States citizen who was arrested while filming a raid at an East Hollywood Home Depot.
